Quotes by Eric Miles Williamson (?)

“Jorgenson needed help because he'd murdered someone without the sanction of the U.S. of A. Jorgenson never understood that you don't get medals for killing people unless you're killing people you don't know and who've never done a fucking thing to you.”
― Eric Miles Williamson
